Vincent D'Onofrio is The Kingpin in "Daredevil" TV Series

It was recently announced that Charlie Cox will play the title role in Marvel's upcoming "Daredevil" TV series. And now, the studio has confirmed that Vincent D'Onofrio ("Law and Order," Full Metal Jacket) will play Wilson Frisk, who's better known as The Kingpin.

The villain was last played by Michael Clarke Duncan in the 2003 "Daredevil" film and is described as "a powerful businessman whose interests in the future of Hell's Kitchen will bring him into conflict with the blind attorney Matt Murdock and his alter ego Daredevil."

"We're incredibly proud to have an actor with the gravitas and versatility of Vincent joining 'Marvel's Daredevil' in such an integral role," said Marvel. "Wilson Fisk is an iconic villain whose cunning and power make him the dangerous equal of our hero."
